Criteria for Aspirin Prophylaxis in Pregnancy
In large met analysis aspirin prophylaxis from 12-16 weeks in pregnancies at high risk for preeclampsia, risk of preeclampsia decreased by 24%, preterm birth due to preeclampsia by 14%, IUGR by 20%. Only low dose aspirin 81 mg (or 75mg) once daily is appropriate. At this time the risk of low dose ASA in pregnant is thought to be negligible and there is no demonstrated increased risk of abruption, postpartum hemorrhage, fetal harm, intracranial bleeding, congenital anomalies.

ACOG recommends using the USPTF guidelines:
History of preeclampsia, especially when accompanied by and adverse outcome
Multifetal gestation
Chronic Hypertension --> BP > 140/90 or taking antihypertensive medication
At CCRMC/UBCP Maternal-Fetal Medicine also recommend ASA prophylaxis for:
Prior documented or convincing history of SGA baby
Prior unexplained fetal demise in the second or third trimester
Timing of Prophylaxis
Benefit shown if started between 12-16 weeks gestation. Unclear benefit if started later than 16 weeks EGA. ACOG suggests starting up to 28 weeks gestation if not started earlier as recommended.
OK to start earlier in first trimester no concern for ectopic
Normally continue until delivery. Consider stopping near delivery if at otherwise high risk for blood loss, e.g. placenta previa.
